Meryl Streep has been confirmed to play Joni Mitchell in an upcoming biopic about the Canadian music icon's life. The news was revealed by record executive Clive Davis, solidifying the long-standing rumor. Mitchell, a multiple-Grammy-winner, has deep roots in Toronto, where she pursued her music career and wrote some of her most iconic songs. The film will likely delve into her personal struggles, including the adoption of her daughter. The project is helmed by writer-director Cameron Crowe, who has a personal connection to Mitchell and a knack for capturing the music scene of the era. Streep's casting as the older Mitchell seems fitting, given her acting prowess and singing abilities showcased in films like Mamma Mia. The biopic promises to be a captivating portrayal of a music legend's life.
